Many innocent non-particpants' safety is at risk. Please whatever your

Note from the Chase Chronicles - July 1922
* Please note: The articles about the Salt Lake Valley Chases, was sent to
the Chase Chronicle by Ella Chase, Historian of the Chase Genealogical
Society, at Chase Park, Farmington, Utah.
"Sisson Alfadorus Chase, son of John D. and Elizabeth Tuttle Chase, was born
in Manti, Sanpete Co., Utah, Feb. 4, 1855. His parents moved to Nephi, when
he was a small boy, and from here to Moroni. When he was 14 the family moved
to Payson where he and his brother Amos worked together farming and
lumbering. In 1873 the brothers bought a ranch located on the Sevier River
in Juab Co., Utah. While here they not only engaged in stock raising but
carried freight from the terminals of the railroad to the mining camps in
the southern part of the State and also to Pioche, Nevada.
On July 25, 1879, Sisson entered the railroad service and continued this
line of work until Nov. 1890, when he was forced to discontinue on account
of ill health. He then entered the service of the Horn Silver & Bullion
Beck Mining Co. From here to the Central Eureka Mine at Eureka where he
remained for eight years. In January 1915 he left Utah for Los Angeles,
California, where he worked with the L.A. Rock and Gravel Co, for three
years, when he returned to his home in Utah to live a more restful and quiet
life in his farm home in Nephi, Utah.
During his varied occupations in life he made lasting friends all along the
way because of his thrift, good judgment, genial disposition and whatever
else combines to entitle him the name Chase. Not only has he been active in
ecclesiastical circles but has filled many responsible positions in his
church as well, some of which follow:
He served as a member of the Bishop-ric in Juab Co., as President of the
Young Men's Mutual Improvement Association in Frisco for two years. He
later became a member of the Bishop-ric in the same place and as
Superintendent of the Sunday School as well. Perhaps his most striking and
useful life's service has been and still is among the sick. His wonderful
gift of healing he desired from his early youth and he has cultivated this
desire from the time when he was a small boy. He has exercised it among
members as well as non-members of his church alike where ever an opportunity
presented itself until at the present time he is sent for miles around to
exercise his strong faith and magnetic healing power in behalf of the sick
and afflicted with the most startling results."

Note from the Chase Chronicles - July 1922
"Sisson Alamdorus (Almadorus???) Chase was born October, 1st., 1809,
Bristol, Addison Co., VT. He was the eldest of a family of nine, and at the
age of nineteen was left fatherless. May 16th, 1832, he married Miriam Gove,
and a few years later, they decided to make their home in the West. They
remained in Iowa for some time, in order to raise and procure provisions and
an outfit for their farther journey across the dreary plains.
In the early part of May 1853, they started on that long journey; Their
outfit consisting of two wagons, one drawn by two oxen, the other by four
young steers. they also had three or four cows, which supplied them with
milk for supper and breakfast, and what was left was put in a tin churn in a
corner of one of the wagons and by the jolting was converted into butter and
butter milk for the noon meal; and when the road was very sandy or otherwise
unusually hard to travel over, the cows were hitched up to help pull the
wagons, and all who were able walked. They arrived in the Salt Lake Valley,
Sept. 11th, 1853, their family, consisting of one son and five daughters,
ranging in age from eighteen to two years, also Mr. Chase's widowed mother.
Soon after arriving in the valley, Mr. Chase secured a position as school
teacher, which he held for a number of years. He died in Salt Lake City,
April 4th 1872. His wife, Miriam Gove Chase was a descendant of Aquila
Chase, through her mother, Hannah Chase Gove, daughter of Nathan G. and
Phebe Hoag Chase. She was born Mar. 22, 1813, in Lincoln, Addison Co., VT.
She bravely shared the hardships of a pioneer's life with her husband. She
was always a very frail woman, and in her younger days, was considered by
her people as almost an invalid all the time, but she was equal to every
emergency, and those of her family who were old enough to remember crossing
the plains, will never forget seeing her stand in the wagon, her face as
white as death, and with her long ox whip in her hand, driving across the
Green River whose water was so deep that it came into the wagon box. After
coming into the valley, besides the care of her family, and her invalid
mother-in-law, she washed wool, carded and spun it to be woven into cloth
for their wearing apparel, also for sheets and blankets; and she, with the
help of her daughters knit all their stockings and made all of their
clothing by hand.
They also made their own tallow candles, and saved every bit of pork rind
and fat of any kind and with that and concentrated lye made their own soap.
She died Nov. 4th, 1909".

Note from the Chase Chronicles - 1922
* Please note: The articles, about the Salt Lake Valley Chases, was sent
to the Chase Chronicle by Ella Chase, Historian of the Chase Genealogical
Society, at Chase Park, Farmington, Utah.
"Amy Hannah Adams Thomas was born Nov. 30, 1857, in Salt Lake City. Her
father, Barnabus Lothrup Adams, was born in Ferth, Canada, and was one of
the original band of pioneers who came to Utah in July, 1847, with President
Brigham Young.
Her mother Hannah Chase, came with her parents Sisson A. and Miriam Gove
Chase, from Lincoln, Addison Co., Vt., when quite a young girl. Amy was the
eldest of her mother's family and when she was eleven years old her father
died, and the next day after he was buried her mother gave birth to her
fifth child.
In the hard trying times of the years that followed, her mother was
compelled to be away from home a great deal, to help earn the means of
providing food and clothing for her little ones, so Amy had to care for the
children, and do the housework to the best of her ability, during her
mother's absence.
Consequently her opportunities of gaining an education, were very limited.
At the age of sixteen she attended the first school where she was taught
anything but reading, spelling and the rudiments of arithmetic. That school
was held in the 13th ward school house in Salt Lake City and was taught by
Mr. Roger and she boarded with Mrs. Louisa Chase McLaughlin working for her
board and schooling. After attending this school for a few months, she was
obliged to tell Mr. Roger that she could not go to school any longer as her
mother was ill and she would have to go home to help her, and would also be
obliged to get to earning something to provide herself with clothing, also
to help the family. After a few moments consideration, Mr. Roger told her
that it would be a shame for her to quit school now, as he had never seen
anyone make such rapid progress as she was doing, and said if she could keep
on coming and take her studies as usual he would allow her to assist him and
pay her $2.50 (two dollars and 50c) a week. This proposition she very
gladly accepted, and the experience she gained, while acting as assistant to
Mr. Roger, proved very valuable to her in after life. At the end of that
school year he engaged her again for the coming year, but in the spring of
the next year, her mother became so very ill that Amy was obliged to stay
home altogether to nurse her mother and care for the family. When leaving,
Mr. Roger told her that if at any time she should be in need of a position,
he would be glad to employ her, but when her mother was partially restored,
the Principal of the First Ward School asked her to assist him. As this
school was only a block and a half from home, and the other was two miles,
and she was offered higher wages she very gladly accepted. She now had more
time for home duties and from then on never lacked employment.
At the age of seventeen she became secretary of the Retrenchment Association
of the First Ward, and a few months later she became Secretary of the
General Retrenchment Association, which met semi-monthly in the 14th ward
meeting house and was presided over, and attended by many of the leading
sisters of the church, and from them she received much valuable advice,
council, and instruction.
On February 8th, 1878, Amy was married to Charles John Thomas.
In 1889 and 1890 Amy took a course in obstetrics and nursing, not with the
intention of making a practice of it, but feeling that every woman should
learn all that she could in that respect. Since then she has felt the
assurance that has been enabled to give comfort and help to quite a number
of women.
Ever since her girlhood she has been interested in the Auxiliary Ass'n. of
the church, having served as teacher and Secretary of the Relief Society in
two different wards, as President of the Primary Association, then of the
Y.L.M.I.A., in one ward ,as Superintendent of Religion Class and leader in
Relief Society in another ward and President of Relief Society in another
ward and now she is an acting teacher and class leader in the Relief Society
in the East Bountiful First Ward where she has been living for a little over
two years".

Huge upgrade for FamilySearch Associated Press
The world's biggest online genealogical collection is
about to get bigger.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has
added 240 million names to its 640-million name archive. The church
maintains the runaway Internet hit"FamilySearch." The boost is the largest
single upgrade since the Web site was launched last May.
Site designers vastly underestimated the number of people that would use the
Web site, which receives up to 10 million "hits" a day. Web site spokesman
Paul Nauta argues those totals make FamilySearch the Internet's hottest
service. That claim is difficult to confirm, though, given the varying
methods such Web stalwarts as America Online,Microsoft and Yahoo! use to
measure use.
But by any measure, the church's site and its more than 300,000 registered
users account for one of the Web's most popular stops.
Todd Christoffersen, executive director of the LDS Church's Family History
Department, said the latest names were gathered primarily from Western
Europe,Scandinavia and Mexico and by themselves surpass the size of most
other genealogical databases on the Web.
FamilySearch will continue to be offered as a free service, though church
officials have hinted that some sort of fee may eventually be charged.
In addition to other online archives, like the 30 million-name Ancestral
File, FamilySearch plans early next year to index the new Pedigree Resource
File, a database of family history records being transmitted or"uploaded" to
the site by users.
The pedigree file, already listing more than 5 million names, is projected
to grow at the rate of 1.2 million
names per month.
Family history has been an LDS Church priority since
the its earliest days. The church officially began compiling genealogical
records in 1984, primarily using
the information in LDS temple ordinances.
Today, the church maintains records of more than 2
billion people, safeguarding the information on millions
of rolls of microfilm stored in granite vaults inside Little Cottonwood
Canyon south of Salt Lake City.
FamilySearch can be found at www.familysearch.org

Hi listers!
I was wondering if anyone with a George M. CHASE had the following marriage
date for the couple.
May 07, 1870, in Spirit Lake, Iowa - Nels Reid, Justice of Peace.
I have the couple in the 1870 Palo Alto Census, to confirm their birthdates.
George M. Chase (Martin7, Nathaniel6, Timothy5, Isaac4, Daniel3, Aquila2,
XXX1)
b. July 9, 1849, in Pennsylvania
Clarissa "Clara" J. SCHUNEMAN b. 1853 in Michigan
I have Clara's parents as John SCHUNEMAN and Euphemia WHEELOCK.
If any of this rings a bell let me know.
Thanks,
Kari Johnson

ERRATA MAGNA:
#561
JOHN (6) CHASE (Abel[5],Nathaniel[4],James[3],Thomas[2], born in 1768. He
may be the John Chase who married in Orford, NH, 2 Sept 1799, SALLY NILES.
There is great uncertainty about this family. One John and Sarah Chase had
the following children recorded as born in Orfaord. It does not seem
consistent to assume that six children were born to them after they had been
married sixteen years:
Children, born in Orford:
JOHN(7), b. 6 Jan 1816; d. Orford, 11 Mar 1829, age 13.
LUCINDA, b. 30 Jan 1819;[m. Horace Rawson; d. 27 Nov 1855,
Bristol township, Dane Co, WI]
1500. MOSES, B. 5 Jun1821; [m. Sarah Ives, 2 Jul 1848; moved
to Wis in 1850, moved to Spokane, WA 1899; d. 18 Oct 1907, Spokane, WA]
1501. WILLARD T[TRUSSEL], b. 16 May 1823; [m. Martha L.
Derby, 10 Jan 1850; moved to Dane Co,Wis in 1850, moved to Vernon Co, Wis in
1892; d. 14 Apr 1900, Viroqua, WI]
HANNAH H [HOIT], b. 10 Sep 1825; [m. George W Swain, 1849;
moved to Dane Co, Wis in 1853, moved to Vernon Co, Wis, 1863; d. 16 May
1895]
1502. GEORGE H, b. 2 Apr 1828; [m. Catherine Upham Hoyt, Jan
1853, Craftsbury, VT; d. 1911]
These should be correctly identified as six children of the children of John
Chase and Sally Hoyt, aka Sarah Hoyt. JOHN CHASE is actually #2338, the son
of #1060 AMBROSE (6) CHASE (Daniel[5], Lt. Wells[4], Moses[3], Ens.
Moses[2].
More information on John and Sally (Hoyt) Chase's additional children born
in Craftsbury, VT (Henry, Sarah Jane, Samuel Willis, and Ambrose) available
upon request.
